It's fine to set the soundcard identically to how you have configured it in DM-780. Soundcards CAN be shared by Windows applications. They're just not as responsive as a hardware COM port connection.įinally, you'll set the soundcard to the appropriate soundcard that you are using for digital modes. CAT is where WSJT-X sends software commands to the radio through the Ham Radio Deluxe Rig Control connection to engage PTT. VOX is where you turn on VOX on the radio and - when WSJT-X sends an audio signal to the radio, then PTT will engage. If you have neither of the above (like recent ICOM models), you can use either VOX or CAT. In this case, there are separate cables that Windows will see as a COM port that can plug into the radio. Some radios have a separate connector for PTT. If you've got a radio that provides separate virtual COM ports, then that works great. Some radios (like recent Yaesu models) create two virtual COM ports after installing the driver. Using a COM port requires a dedicated COM port that is different than the COM port that Rig Control is using to control the radio. PTT options are as follows (please read them all the best option varies by radio):ĬOM Port - a COM port is hardware switched and it's the fastest and most responsive way to control PTT. The baud rate is not relevant when the rig is Ham Radio Deluxe, as it is Rig Control talking directly to the COM port. Note: The most common problem that operators have is that they set this to their specific rig model, rather than Ham Radio Deluxe. Notice that - in all cases - the Rig is set to "Ham Radio Deluxe." It must be that way to avoid COM port conflicts. Make sure that both Rig Control and Logbook can 'see' the rig you're using.
The first thing to do - before launching WSJT-X is to launch Ham Radio Deluxe Rig Control and Logbook. Both WSJT-X has been developed to pass rig control data to and from the rig through Ham Radio Deluxe.
īecause only one application can access the COM port, then that application needs to be Ham Radio Deluxe Rig Control. " The Laws of Physics", as applied to COM ports is this - a given COM port can only be used by one software application at a time. The purpose of this article is to provide the information necessary to configure WSJT-X to work with Ham Radio Deluxe. Ham Radio Deluxe works programs like WSJT-X - regardless of what radio you are using.
